Key Passages
You have plowed wickedness and reaped injustice;you have eaten the fruit of lies.Because you have trusted in your own wayand in the multitude of your mighty men,
They delight the king with their evil,and the princes with their lies.
You have bound me, and it has become a witness;my frailty rises up and testifies against me.
